Schott Zwiesel, the renowned German producer of The Best Crystal Glassware, has been a leader in innovation, style, and technology for over a century. In 2001, Schott Zwiesel created Tritan® Crystal by adding titanium oxide and zirconium oxide, developing "The World's Best Crystal Glass." Tritan® Crystal is 100% dishwasher safe, resisting etching, clouding, or discoloration for the life of the glass. It also resists the damages of daily use, such as breakage, chipping, and scratching, and is thermal shock resistant. Tritan® is one of the clearest and most brilliant crystal, capable of conducting, refracting, and transferring light more than any other crystal. Schott Zwiesel tempers the rim, the bowl and stem joint, and the foot edge of all their crystal items for added strength against chipping and breakage. Their patented laser technology ensures a smooth, thin, and elegant edge for all their crystal products.
